    The good stuff keeps on flowing! In my northern youth all one’s friends’ mums were called aunty, quite naturally. “Besom” is a new one for me!!
  2. A bullied teenager finds happiness but with a supernatural twist. A well thought out little gem, which very nicely written. Recommended.

    As the Queen of Mean once said, “only the little people pay taxes”. In UK no rich person pays inheritance tax, only those who didn’t plan things……. Umm 🧐

    Great analysis @slightlymad and great to see a fellow Brit here!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
  6. All up to date! Another v good chp. As an infamous ad jingle says “I’m lovin it!”
  7. I totally agree. I’ve waited a bit to get to read a few chps together NOT for lack of interest, the opposite in fact. Although I love some of the high drama series in GA, this story makes me relax and feel comfortable - if rather envious… gx

    90,000 words of utter delight. Thank you so much and hopefully another 96,000 to come!
  9. I note that I might get bitten and that my Chippendale chairs might get damaged…… Seriously, I’m with you 100%. For me after yrs in the Catholic Church and even studying ethics with the Jesuits in Rome, the only moral rule I have is the old “do as you would be done by” . If only the fanatics would leave off the OT and actually read the Gospels of love and forgiveness, for a start. I love your fiction and admire your views. Have a fruitful and creative 2024. We need writers like you!
  10. Great ideas @kbois!!!! I too love mrs g, and think I have “liked/loved” every one of her chps.. but now worry if I will be forgiven…. 😰
  11. Retire on 30 June and not give in to pressure to stay a day longer. keep firm and convince my partner that I am capable of controlling 2 mini dachshunds and keep taking them to obedience classes lest they train me. @weinerdog may have to give me advice…. Please. oh and lose the 5 kilos necessary to keep drs and specialists off my back. Ps I’ve gained a kilo this holiday season…
  12. One day private T you will love Will……Happy New Year. 🥳

    Thank you, Mark!!! Have a fantastic, and productive, 2024. Your work has been a complete pleasure to read and then reread…. And then…. as @rjostlie says, awesome 😎
  18. You did it! BTW I’m left-handed……

    Chapter 1

    Not sure how your contribution escaped me @raven1, but I’ve just found it. Well done. I just loved this line especially: What’s a lad to do seeing lustful looks stare? 🥰 great stuff.
  20. My Irish grandmother always said she would start the long-needed diet, “next Monday”. As a child I never got it, nor did she ever diet! So in her spirit, next Monday I will decide on the resolution for 2024. ps have reread yr list, so funny 😂
  21. Many thanks raven 1 for sharing this. I teach in a private school with the usual quota of ADHD. Some parents are in denial and it’s all the teacher’s fault if the kid gets into trouble; others can’t wait to get the kid on pills as young as possible, and it’s sad seeing them doped and losing their identity; and finally those who are able to work through the issues, giving the child the time and understanding needed. again, many thanks to you and James for writing and sharing on this issue. A new year hug to you both, Gary

    A very beautiful tale of life after death. Very imaginatively written and engaged me from the first sentence. Congratulations to the author(s). I really enjoyed it. I was left wanting more but also content. Well done!

    Chapter 1

    Off to a good, if sad, start. Hopefully things will improve for Private Ryan. 🤞
  25. 1. Mark Arbour series. Hard to choose but for sheer historical authenticity, then Bridgemont. 2. Valencian “arroz al horno”. 3. part one: get through and survive last six months until I retire, neatly enough, on 30 June. Part two, post July 1, get my life and health back and getting two mini weinerdogs to make a certain member here jealous! For the AAA others especially Chris and lawful have summed things up perfectly for me. many thanks aastone.
